What an excellent idea! This pack contains all the essential items and topics required for the growth and development of your young baby. It is especially suitable for first - time parents who are bombarded with so much information on how to ensure the stimulation and development of their baby and dont know where to start. I found it very simple to use and also quite exciting and could not wait to introduce a new topic, excercise or toy. My husband was thrilled with this find of ours and he really enjoyed being able to contribute to our son's learning experience through stimulation and play.

When you shake this "book style" play pack, you can hear the musical rattle inside. The rattle helps a baby to acquire a mature grip which later will help in writing. In fact, this "book" opens up to reveal a number of fun activities for you and your baby. The three foam toys are covered in various materials. The surface, color, shape and sound of each block will fascinate and amuse. The Music tape (Mozart Beethoven, Handel, Vivaldi and Bach) will help to stimulate the part of your baby's brain that is responsible for math, logic, concentration and speech.

There is a cute wall banner which will help your newborn baby to stimulate recognition and memory. It is not something your child could play with as it is just made out of paper and could easily tear. It is just a very small item and could be put up on the wall so you could point to images of a cat or pig and say the sound each animal makes. The mobile is easy to assemble and must also be kept out of the babies reach. If placed 8-10 inches above the crib, it will help to stimulate vision from birth.

I turned over a smiley face on a piece of cardboard and found myself, well..looking at me :). It is a mirror you can hold above our baby's face so she can study her reflection and begin to develop a sense of self. Because various types of play will encourage your child to develop in different ways, there is a set of "48 game cards." Each card encourages all aspects of a baby's development. Every card shows a fun activity. Fun and familiar rhymes like "This little Piggy" are fun and help a child to be more aware of their feet.

The included "Baby's Skill Book" is just wonderful as it presents hundreds of easy ways to encourage your baby's month-by-month progress throughout the first year. A "golden hour" time clock shows the games and activities that will be particularly good at various stages of development. During the wakeful times, you can help to promote his innate desires to communicate and play.

All I have to say is..."How did parents survive without all this information in the past?" Dr. Miriam sure has it all organized for the new mom and dad.

~The Rebecca Review

This is one of the few resources that equip new parents with a "lesson plan" for interacting in positive, productive, and, most importantly, fun ways. Not all of us, after all, can recall the nursery rhymes, songs, and games we played as an infant! This resource helps bring back the once familiar and introduces new ones as well. In an age that pushes us to produce independent little "baby einsteins," it is refreshing to have the voice of a respected pediatrician call us to action for just plain fun time, interacting one-on-one with our instinctively interdependent, social babies.
